A 2.50 g sample of zinc is heated, and then placed in a calorimeter containing 65.0 g of water. Temperature of water increases f
swat32

718.65 degrees is the initial temperature of the zinc metal sample.

Explanation:

Data given:

mass of zinc sample = 2.50 grams

mass of water  = 65 grams

initial temperature of water = 20 degrees

final temperature of water = 22.5 degrees

ΔT  = change in temperature of water is 2.50 degrees

specific heat capacity of zinc cp= 0.390 J/g°C

initial temperature of zinc sample = ?

cp of water = 4.186 J/g°C

heat absorbed = heat released (no heat loss)

formula used is

q = mcΔT

q water = 65 x 4.286 x 2.5

q water = 696.15 J

q zinc = 2.50 x 0.390 x (22.50- Ti)

equating the two equations

696.15 = - 22.50+ Ti

Ti = 718.65 degrees is the initial temperature of zinc.

Mario uses a hot plate to heat a beaker of 50mL of water. He used a thermometer to measure the temperature of the water. The wat

Answer:

The boiling point decreases as the volume decreases.

Explanation:

The Temperature - Volume law otherwise called as Charles law is applied, which says that the volume of the given gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to the temperature measured in Kelvin. As the volume increases, the temperature also increases, if the volume decreases, then the temperature also decreases.

As per the Charles law, here the volume is decreased from 50 ml to 25 ml so the boiling point also decreases.

Calculate the grams of so2 gas present at stp in a 5.9 l container. (r = 0.0821 l·atm/k·mol)
Neko [114]
There is an exact value for the standard volume at standard conditions of 1 atm and 273 K. This standard volume for any ideal gas is 22.4 L/mol. Thus,

Moles SO₂ = 5.9 L * 1 mol/22.4 L = 0.263 mol

The molar mass for SO₂ is 64.066 g/mol. So, the mass is:

Mass = 0.263 mol * 64.066 g/mol = <em>16.87 g SO₂</em>

Determine the number of neutrons in an atom of Rg-272.
IRISSAK [1]
In order to find the number of neutrons in the atom,

you need to calculate the difference between the top and bottom numbers

which means 272 - 111 = 161

Hope this helps

How many grams of (nh4)3po4 are needed to make 0.250 l of 0.150 m (nh4)3po4? hints how many grams of (nh4)3po4 are needed to mak
NeX [460]
<span>There are a number of ways to express concentration of a solution. This includes molarity. Molarity is expressed as the number of moles of solute per volume of the solution. We calculate the mass of the solute by first determining the number of moles needed. And by using the molar mass, we can convert it to units of mass.

Moles </span>(nh4)3po4 = 0.250 L (0.150 M) = 0.0375 moles (nh4)3po4
Mass = 0.0375 mol (nh4)3po4 (149.0867 g / mol) = 5.59 g (nh4)3po4
